Title: *Completed* Restore - School Photo 1918
Post by: mowi on Monday 24 October 11 13:38 BST (UK)
This is the only photograph I have of my dad as a child.

He is the little boy on the back row, 3rd from the right.

It was taken in Salford UK, 1918.

If there is anyone who can improve the colour and remove some of the marks then it would be greatley appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Mowi

Hello all and thank you.
Yes the small photo is my Dad.He was born in 1904 . I thought the date on the slate was 1918 but that would make him 14.I think he and the others look younger,and I wonder if it is 1915 when he would have been 11.
